Just to add more input to the thread, I did my first oil change today. I used a BMW kit with BMW 5W-30 oil. Drained while warm, let it drain a long time. Put in 6.5 quarts. Oil dipstick said perfect, max full. I think it says that for anything from 6 quarts to 7 quarts... But the strange thing about this car which I've never had with other cars. You check the oil with the car running... I was just sitting in my garage on ground idling when I checked mine. It took about 2 mins to calculate.
I'm saving the extra 1/2 quart I have left but doubt I will ever need it.
